Evaluation of the Beckman creatinine analyzer.

Abstract:

:We compared results obtained with the Beckman Creatinine Analyzer (Beckman Instruments, Inc.) to those with the GEMSAEC Centrifugal Analyzer (Electro-Nucleonics, Inc.) and with a manual method for determination of creatinine in serum and urine. Linearity, stability, recovery, and precision were evaluated. Interference from bilirubin, protein, lipemia, uric acid, and hemolysis is negligible, but acetone and acetoacetate can interfere.
